Russia has committed war crimes in Ukraine, UK’s Russian Ambassador appears to admit – BBC Newsnight
In an interview with Newsnight, the Russian Ambassador to the UK appeared to admit Russian troops may have committed war crimes in Ukraine but he denied targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure.
The World Health Organization has warned that the lives of millions will be under threat in Ukraine this winter, with temperatures predicted to plummet as low as -20C in some areas.
Russian forces have been accused of damaging half of the country’s energy infrastructure already – 10 million people are currently without power.
In a sometimes tense exchange, Andrei Kelin conceded that ‘momentum’ was with Ukrainian forces, and said Russia would not use nuclear weapons.

Lives “will be lost” unless the UK does more to prepare for wildfires, experts warn, after a record-breaking summer saw 1,350 wildfires in England and Wales alone.
“Tinderbox” conditions created by a long, hot, dry summer brought the worst wildfire season on record in 2026.
Dozens of homes were destroyed or damaged, huge areas of land burned, and one man died.
The UK government banned disposable barbecues, sent a wildfire alert to people’s mobile phones and made £97m available, and a wildfire summit is planned – but are we still behind the curve?
In this episode of Behind the Investigation, Melanie Stewart-Smith speaks to Adrian Goldberg from File on 4 Investigates about what he found on the ground.

Is the way we date changing?
Studies suggest the time spent on dating apps has dropped in recent years. BBC News crashed an ‘in person’ speed-dating event to ask attendees about their dating habits, and if they’re too skint to date.
